I came across the video below earlier today. It does a great job illustrating just how bad our traffic culture really is - no, not web traffic, but the real kind with cars, bicycles and pedestrians. This is just one intersection in New York, out of a total of 1230. And while New York is really big, it is just one city.

The video was created by Ron Gabriel and is part of the "3 Way Street" campaign. You can read more about it on his blog.
